Text

(a)
With respect to a transfer, in whole or in part, of a transferable interest, all of the following apply:
(1)
A transfer is permissible.
(2)
A transfer does not by itself cause a member’s dissociation or a dissolution and winding up of the activities of a limited liability company.
(3)
Subject to Section 17705.04, a transfer does not entitle the transferee to do any of the following:
(A)
Vote or otherwise participate in the management or conduct of the activities of a limited liability company.
(B)
Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (c) and Section 17704.10, have access to records or other information concerning the activities of a limited liability company.
(b)
A transferee has the right to receive, in accordance with the transfer, distributions to which the transferor would otherwise be entitled; provided, however, that the pledge or granting of a security interest, lien, or other encumbrance in or against any or all of the transferable interest of a transferor shall not cause the transferor to cease to be a member or grant to the transferee or to anyone else the power to exercise any rights or powers of a member, including, without limitation, the right to receive distributions to which the member is entitled.
(c)
In a dissolution and winding up of a limited liability company, a transferee is
entitled to an account of the limited liability company’s transactions only from the date of dissolution.
(d)
A transferable interest may be evidenced by a certificate of the interest issued by the limited liability company in a record, and, subject to this article, the interest represented by the certificate may be transferred by a transfer of the certificate.
(e)
A limited liability company need not give effect to a transferee’s rights under this section until the limited liability company has notice of the transfer.
(f)
A transfer of a transferable interest in violation of a restriction on transfer contained in the operating agreement is ineffective as to a person having notice of the restriction at the time of transfer.
(g)
Except as otherwise
provided in subdivision (b) of this section and paragraph (2) of subdivision (d) of Section 17706.02, when a member transfers a transferable interest, the transferor retains the rights of a member, other than the interest in distributions transferred, and retains all duties and obligations of a member.
(h)
When a member transfers a transferable interest to a person that becomes a member with respect to the transferred interest, the transferee is liable for the member’s obligations under Section 17704.03 and subdivision (c) of Section 17704.06 known to the transferee when the transferee becomes a member.
